They're about the same price (with mobo they both are ~500 euro) in my country. As 5600X has a better performance in CSGO, I will choose it. Thank you all.

I may have a shot att buying a ryzen 5600x and Asus rog Strix gaming-f for about 340$, used.

A new 12400f and b660 in my country would be about 430-440$. 12400f is 220$ and the boards about the same. The cheaper ones are crap, and I really don't se the prices going down anytime soon. I even believe it has been anounced by TSMC they will increase prices this year by 20% on chips.

Don't really know what to go for. Currently have a 4790k.

So in conclusion, even if ryzen still is a good platform, 12400f and b660 is still the better buy? Granted one can find a decent board that doesn't cost to much.

How does the Asus Prime B660-Plus stack up compared to Gaming X? It can be found for same price.

Also the Prime non Plus and MSI pro are similarly prices
